You can easily pop a baby Boa especially a dead one so long as it isn't stiff. If it is a female, that possibility would still be there. If it's a boy, then you'll need some other unknown explanation. Also, if you contact Dr. Warren Booth, you can get him samples of some sort and I believe he can do the genetic test to prove if in fact you have a clone or not. It may be as simple as a shed skin. I believe if it is proven, that would be the first instance of that proven in a Boa Constrictor.

Have fun!
